Complaints about the press

Last November, Harry criticised the press for subjecting Markle to “a wave of abuse and harassment” after the news of their relationship sparked a stream of stories about the 36-year-old actress in British newspapers.

This included comment pieces which Harry complained had a racial tone.

Markle, a divorcee, is a native of Los Angeles whose father is white and mother African-American.

She told Vanity Fair magazine earlier this month that she and Harry were in love, her first direct comments about the relationship.
